24 The Met-

"Brigand and His Wife in Prayer" by Léopold Robert depicts a brigand and his pregnant wife praying at a roadside shrine, reflecting themes of devotion and the struggles of their life in the mountains of central Italy.

The painting highlights the contrast between their criminal lifestyle and their deep religious faith."

36 She looks like their child will arrive soon.

They are both kneeling, and his head is bent, as if honoring a fellow brigand who fell during a raid.

Are these the kind of brigands who roamed the Spanish mountains, like during their Civil War? If so, I'd expect "Ingles" (Robert Jordan) to show up any second.

[Per Brave search "AI:"]

This early meaning was not inherently negative, as these soldiers were part of legitimate military units.

However, the term began to shift in connotation during the 14th century, particularly in English, where the distinction between professional mercenary armies and armed, organized criminals blurred.

As soldiers often turned to pillaging and robbery after wars ended or when unpaid, the word "brigand" increasingly came to describe those who lived by theft and violence outside established authority.

Posted by: Bulg at November 12, 2025 09:52 AM (77rzZ)


It was the final outing for golfing with the geezers. After yesterday it's just pickup rounds until spring. I did pretty good. Won two holes and got closest to the hole on a Par 3. ( about 3 feet). Good news I won $13. Bad news is we're down to 9 guys so the money pool was small. Most of the regular players have gone to warmer climates for the winter.

Honestly, I don't see too much "woke", unless you count Patriarch Bartholomew, who's known as the Green Patriarch. He means well, and takes environmental stewardship seriously, but I don't think he's politically savvy enough to know to avoid the Watermelon Coalition. Other than that, if anything we've seen a lot of converts in recent years, partly because wokeism and modernization have hit everywhere else. Just my $0.02.

228 "Brigare" means "to fight" in Latin. Probably where "brigade" come from. But how it morphed into a term for a bad guy is beyond me...
Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo at November 12, 2025 09:52 AM (n9ltV)

I suspect it comes from the "Brigantes", a large Celtic tribe in Britain that fought the Romans repeatedly. (maybe the Roman's called them that because they were fighters) Anyway, the Roman's didn't like them, and their name is too close to be a coincidence. (Same thing happened with Vandal)

It used to be an old Italian-American tradition that when something was lost, you prayed to St Anthony to find it. The vernacular rhyme was "Tony, Tony, look around / There's something lost that must be found."

So, if you extrapolate "something lost that must be found" to "This TV just fell off the back of a truck, so fuhgeddabout it!", there you are.

305 Old news.

Paleontologists have identified a new species of flying reptile, named Bakiribu waridza.

The most compelling detail of the discovery is the origin of the fossil: it was found in a regurgitalite, or fossilized puke, left by an unknown predator.

Surprisingly, the trace fossil preserved the remains of an entirely new pterosaur species that was consumed and then regurgitated indigestibly.

She's a slim, reasonably pretty, actress who has decided to become BLACK.

320 Funny, cycling back to Epstein. Remember how for 2 weeks every media outlet was shrieking about how Trump was desecrating the White House with his changes? Guess the order went out, it's not working, drop it.

325 The Epstein victim being referenced by the just released emails is Virginia Giuffre. She has already testified in testimony that was released months ago that she never saw Trump act inappropriately.

This was always the left's plan with the Epstein shit. Manufacture a new scandal despite the fact all evidence Trump did absolutely nothing wrong and in fact offered to testify against Epstein in the Florida case after he tossed him from his club.

326 I'd never heard of "Euphoria" the HBO series about teen sex and teen drugs and teen whatever but mostly about teen sex, so I asked the cloud and it has a large cast and Sydney Sweeney is listed something like sixteen down from the top. Does that stupid twit that won't appear with her know that Sweeney's recent film character is a lesbian? Is her TDS so powerful it overcomes all?

345 I thought I'd read that those gummint jobs in which sat leftist dolts and the dolts got furloughed during SchumerShutdown, that the JOBS must persist, but that the FURLOUGHED DOLTS don't have to be rehired.

That means new dolts of perhaps the MAGA tilt can be hired to fill the jobs. That is, if any such people can be found within miles of D.C.

349 In HS, I played the father in Our Town. I called my brother's father-in-law in Fall River to get tips on how to sound New-Englandy. I think the first thing he taught me was "ayuh."
Posted by: Bulg at November 12, 2025 10:49 AM (77rzZ)


That's really more the classic Down East Mainer than anything else. Since Our Town is based on Peterborough NH, the accent would be nasal, but not the laconic "ayuh," IMO.

If you want a real laugh, read HP Lovecraft's attempts to mimic a NH or MA accent in some of his stories.
